Editorial Reviews

The title character in this five-part British miniseries was a university lecturer (Alan Bates) with a fondness for anagrams and crossword puzzles. Laid off from his academic job, Oliver embarks upon a search for Aristotle, his favorite crossword compiler and creator of the intellectual game Mastermind. Following the trail to Wales, Oliver and his predestined companion, police officer Diane Priest (Sinead Cusack), get entangled in a life-threatening mystery. Written by the prolific Alan Plater, Oliver's Travels made its BBC bow in 1995. Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

August 04, 2005: I originally saw this movie on PBS as a 3-part mystery series. I recorded it myself on VHS, but the copies are old & snowy. I've been waiting & waiting for someone to put it out on video. It is delightful fun, especially for the over-40 folks who enjoy word games & are beginning to think about becoming redundant themselves.
